The Linguine, Spinach, Garlic & Red Pepper dish is an easy one that I make when its just me for dinner. Cook about 3 oz pasta. While your pasta is cooking sauté some chopped garlic & red pepper flakes in a generous amount of olive oil. Drain the pasta & return it to the pot. Stir in the garlic, red pepper & olive oil then about 2 cups cleaned spinach. Stir until the heat of the pasta wilt the spinach & serve.

For the Fresh Strawberry Sauce on the pancakes just mix strawberries with sugar & let them sit at room temperature for at least an hour.

And box #5...

Strawberries - I have a lot of vanilla ice cream in the freezer calling for fresh strawberry sauce

Sweetheart Cabbage - Matt is craving coleslaw

Romaine Lettuce - Salad & perhaps some wraps

White Scallions - Nothing special planned we use these in a lot of different recipes

Red Beets - Roasted & in salad, yum! I may freeze the greens for use in a soup later

Fennel - Matt wants to grill the bulbs. I'd like to use the greens with fish

Fresh Garlic - A mild garlic to use in everything

Zucchini - Matt says he could have this grilled or sautéed with every meal.

Amaranth - Wikipedia has a good article on how this beautiful leaf is used by many different cultures. I'm thinking in a stir-fry or cooked in a Greek style with olive oil & lemon and served with fish.

Peas - I cooked the peas from our garden quickly in hot oil with a sauce of soy sauce, honey & garlic & it was wonderful. Think I'll do that again.
